Power Fluctuations Causing Temporary Low Water Pressure
DECATUR, Ga.—Some DeKalb County water customers may experience temporary water pressure decreases due to power fluctuations and outages at county pump stations.
Strong winds from Tropical Storm Zeta have knocked down dozens of trees around the county, and more trees are expected to fall throughout the day. Many of these trees damage power lines causing temporary outages until generators at pump stations kick on.
Any customer experiencing brown water should run their faucets until the water is clear.
Customers experiencing issues should contact 770-270-6243.
